The Japanese Internment Of WW2 - a podcast by Craig Baird

It is a dark chapter in Canada's history. After Pearl Harbour, fueled by anti-Japanese racism, the Canadian government authorized the internment of 22,000 Japanese Canadians, 80% of which were born in Canada.

The Japanese Canadians would be moved from their homes, losing their businesses, possessions and livelihoods, forced to live in empty ghost towns where conditions were poor at best.
